实用对话

Paying the Check买单

Brad: Let me take care of the check today.

布拉德:今天我来买单。

Lucy: Why? It's unfair. How about going Dutch?

露西:为什么?这样不公平。我们各付各的怎么样?

Brad: You paid last time because I didn't have any money, remember?

布拉德:上次我没有钱,就是你付的,还记得吗?

Lucy: Oh, come on. I almost forgot. Don't worry about it. I didn't mind picking up the tab last time.

露西:哦,算了吧。我几乎都忘了。别在意。我不介意上次买单的。

Brad: But you really should let me treat one time. I'd feel like I owe you one if I didn't.

布拉德:不过你确实应该让我请一次客了。不然我会觉得欠你一个人情的。

Lucy: OK. But it's only for this time.

露西:好吧。仅此一次啊。

Brad: What's the damage?

布垃德:总共是多少钱呢?

Lucy: It's 12 dollars and 80 cents altogether. But don't forget the tip. It's usually 15%.

露西:总共是12美元80美分。但别忘了还有小费,通常是总消费的15%。

Brad: (to the waiter) Check. please.

布拉德:(对服务页说)请结账。

3.详细解说

1.take care of 在这里表示“支付,给…付款”,为比较委婉的说法。

例如:We'll take care of the fees.(我们来付费。)

另外,此短语还可以表示“处理,照顾”,

例如:Her secretary always took care of the details.(一直是她的秘书处理细节的事情。)

Don't worry about your mother.I'll take care of her.(别担心你的妈妈,我会照顾她的。)

2.pick up the tab 意思是“支付账款,支付费用”,尤指某人没有义务去支付的情况。

the tab 意为“账单”,

例如:Taxpayers will pick up the tab for the stadium.(纳税人将要为修建体育馆付账。)

tab 可以解释为:an amount of money that you owe, or a record of an amount of money that you owe.意为“账款,账单,账”,

例如:The tab for the campaign was nearly $500 million.(活动费用接近五亿美元。)

I'll put it on your tab and you can pay tomorrow.(我将记在你的账上,你可以明天支付。)

3.What's the damage? 在这里的意思是“多少钱?”这是口语中询问“该付多少钱”时的幽默问法,因为 damage 原意为“损失”。
